Some Background NIBA – Network Integrated Biocollections Alliance – a 2010 strategic plan for a 10-year effort to digitize and mobilize the scientific information associated with biological specimens held in U.S. research collections. NSF ADBC – Advancing Digitization of Biodiversity Collections – a 10-year program to digitize biodiversity specimens stored in all U.S. Collections. Total program funding is $100 million ($10 million per year). Fund 3-4 new TCN projects each year. TCN – Thematic Collection Network – Digitization projects funded by NSF ADBC are networks of institutions with a strategy for digitizing information that addresses a particular research theme, such as impacts of climate change on the biota of a region. iDigBio - Integrated Digitized Biocollections - funded by NSF to act as a hub for the TCNs and other digitization projects. iDigBio is a national resource that integrates data, coordinates and promotes tool development, and fostering partnerships and innovations. Located at UF, FMNH and FSU.

Progress to Date

We can use your help! Have we left out important collections? Goal is to digitize all macroalgal specimens in U.S. herbaria You can apply for NSF PEN funding Deadline October 16, 2015 What data visualization tools would you like to see? Distribution changes over time Community structure changes Seasonality shifts
